Chapter 9
With Jo
I woke up on a coach, staring out a window with the sun shining in my face. I groaned slightly and turned on my side, to see a smirking and concerned Colin.
''good morning sleepy head, how you sleep?''
I groan and close my eyes and sit up ''shit up Colin, I feel like Finn right now''
''well then, that's not something new for you then, you have been out drinking with him before''
''yea but it's been a while really it has, and I don't think that I want to feel like this for a while again''
He just nodded and stared at me, I knew what he wanted to ask me but I don't think I was ready to answer.
''not now Colin'' I pleaded with him
''well if not now than after breakfast, you need to have something to eat so that you can tell me what happened'' he sighed and said with determine
''fine Colin'' I say resigned
With that he got up and walked over to the kitchen and began making breakfast. I got up and walked over the spare bathroom and a quick shower and threw on a pair of sweat pants and top that I had left here the last time I had stayed.
Then walked out to see that Colin had finished making breakfast, and was getting each a glass of orange juice. I sighed as I sat down and began digging into the breakfast. It was just what I needed to talk to him and get over my hangover.
''so where do you want to begin?'' he asked as we started to dig into the food.
''where do you want to hear from?' I counted his question with a question
''stop deflecting and just start from where you think that you think you need to start'' he says with a straight face
I sigh and look down at my plate, trying to figure out where I should start from ''I think I should start from when I talked to Paris''
''what why Paris?'' he asked with confusion in his voice
''she helped me realize that the plan Jess wants to do that you know about''
''oh did she help you with that?''
''well it started when I went over to hers…
*Flashback*
I walked up the stairs, past the doo wop group that was on the second floor and then up another flight of stairs to Paris and Doyle's place. I knew what to say to her, I just had to hope that she would listen to me and see things the way that they should be.
I knocked on the door and listened as someone came and opened it, it just happened to be Doyle ''oh hi Jo what can I do you for?''
''hey Doyle is Paris I need to talk to her?''
''yea sure come on in''
As he opened the door wider, and I stepped through Paris was just coming out their bedroom. The way she looked at me was one of amusement and spoke volumes, she had a good poker face because she was back to her usual annoyed looking face.
''why are you here Jo?'' she asked annoyed and curious at the same time
''I need to talk to you alone Paris''
Doyle got the hint and said something about how he needed to run to work and would be back later.
''he has gone, so explain why you are here Jo?''
''I need your help''
''my help, and why should I help you?''
''because you know as well as I do that Rory and Logan don't belong together and that they need to be broken up, so I wanted you to help me with that''
She just looks at me before grabbing us both a coke out the fridge, then sat on the couch next to me.
''why do you think that they don't belong together?''
'Because he is a risk taker, born from the world that her mother ran away from and didn't want her to be a part of. He was happy sleeping with anything that had legs, boobs and all it wanted was a quick fling. She is from a small town where everyone knows everyone's business. She is the little town's princess that can do no wrong, even with that affair that she had with Dean she was still not blamed''
''how do you know about the Dean thing?''
''I heard it from different people that told me the same thing''
''okay, so you think that you are good match for Logan better than Rory at least?'' She asked me with a questioning glance towards me
''yea of course I am''
''what makes you think that one then?''
''we both of grown up in society, know how to deal with one another parents. The rest of society and choose the correct partner that would be accepted in the world that we live in. Rory has no idea what it takes to be Logan's girlfriend and if they are serious than the future as well she doesn't know how to plan tea parties, make sure he doesn't have to worry about nay parties that may come up in the future''
''well then your information is most likely from Jess and his information is a little out of date''
''no it isn't, he is always up to date!''
''so he knows about when Rory quit Yale and joined the DAR?''
''He knows about her quitting Yale and the DAR, just he doesn't really know what she did''
I had to be honest with her it was the only way that Paris was going to listen to me and help me with breaking them apart.
''well then let me tell you, she did plan parties she worked with others members and helped them plan parties. She helped members daughters choose the right schools that she believed would help them. She made a fake smile to some of the other members that she didn't like and knew were only talking to her because they had to. She learned how to make comments discreetly that would embarrass them normally. Logan has helped her learn all the different gossip and now they are good couple when they go to parties like that''
''but she doesn't understand everything that comes with society''
''she might not but that doesn't mean that she isn't willing to learn about it so that she can be better equipped when it comes to dealing with people''
''they aren't right together''
''who said this to you?''
''Jess''
''do you believe everything that he tells you?''
''only when it's important to the person that I want to be with and whom I care about''
She was silent then and I was hoping that it meant that she was coming to my side of things. I was about to speak again when she asked me something I thought I knew the answer to.
''you said that you cared for Logan, but do you love him?''
It was such a simple straight forward answer one that the question shouldn't have made me hesitate in answering, ''yes I do''
''why did you hesitate?'' she said with a little sadness in her voice
''I didn't…''
''but you did, you don't love Logan any more than Rory loves Jess''
''that's not possible, she just doesn't realize that she still loves him''
''you don't even sound convincing, so who are you trying to make believe this you or me?''
I couldn't speak I just started to think about everything that Jess had ever told, everything I had thought about for me and Logan. Things that I wanted to happen for the two of us but knew that there was a chance that it couldn't happen. Through all of my thinking I came to realization one that must have shown on my face for the look that Paris gave me.
''you know now don't you who you really want to be. It's the same reason as to why Rory is with Logan. Your right they are different, Rory loves her books and coffee, actually likes school is close to her family and makes sure that the people around here know that she wears her heart on sleeve. There are only a select few who she will trust of everyone. She is different because of where she grew up, the crazy small town where everyone likes her.
Whereas Logan is from high society, grew up with everyone putting on an act. Never really showing the emotions the only one for him that really showed him any emotion, was the nanny he had, his sister and the few friends that he let have close to him. He grew up with everything handed to him because of his last name and didn't need anything else. He liked his drinks and anything with a skirt.
When they first meet I didn't like them beginning together at all and didn't want Rory to get heart broken. I wanted them to break up so that I didn't lose my friend, not knowing that it wasn't going to be the case. I didn't know that till after they had been together for a long while I knew just how well they worked well together. I don't want them to break up Jo, I know and can tell that you like Jess. So stay with him and try to change his mind about everything it will be easier for you''
I just stayed quiet then and didn't really know what to say but I kept my head and then walked out with a slight nod in her direction.
*end of Flashback*
I stayed quiet a little while longer and smiled at the look on Colin's face before I said anything to him.
''didn't tell you all of that did I?''
''no you didn't'' he shake his head and looked at me ''you got that you like Jess from all of that?''
I sighed, stood up and looked out the window ''yea did, my phone has already went off a few times and they are all him. If I knew he was calling because he cared about me then it would be a nice feeling but it's not the reason, so I just bitter towards him''
Colin is silent now and look at my phone that's next to me, and see that I was right. All messages from Jess asking where I was so that they could do the plan and that they needed to finish their discussion.
All I wanted to do was go shop, have something to eat with him but it wouldn't be that easy and she knew that because that was the way her life was now.
She just had to hope that she could deal with whatever came into her life.
With Rory
I was walking down one of the pathways in the courtyards, on my way to class and then go to the daily news. I was in need of another cup of coffee though so made a slight detour to the coffee cart that I knew was on the way to my class.
As I walked around the corner I stopped dead in my tracks, and nearly passed out with what I could see. It was Logan kissing some blonde bimbo up against a wall. I could feel the tears coming down my face and couldn't believe that I actually thought he could change, that he wouldn't do this to me again.
I yanked the necklace he gave me from around my neck and walked over to them and tapped him on his shoulder, just as he turned around and noticed it was me I slapped him and gave him the necklace back and ''I think we should break up'' I whispered to him.
With that I walked away and bumped into Finn, who just hugged me and glared over my shoulder at Logan who was trying to get to me.
''Ace…please…listen to me''
There was something in the way that he spoke that made me turn around and look at him properly, I could see tears in his eyes but also that he wasn't really standing up straight. I've seen him drunk and completely wasted, this is different though.
He was fine this morning when we had a shower together and had breakfast, but he had to leave early than me because he had a meeting he wanted to get to. There was no other reason why he should be here except that he was coming to surprise me. And I know that Finn had someone he wanted to meet and was going to use the campus as a short cut to get there.
''Logan?'' I question him and step forward slightly
''Ace, I'm sorry'' then he collapses on the ground in front me
''Mate''
''Logan''
Finn and I both yell at him, I am able to get to him just before he hits the floor and I yell at Finn, ''do something Finn''
''we can take him back to your place love, and see if he wakes up call Colin and Steph and Paris and see if they can help and see what we can do to help him''
''no we need to take him to the hospital''
He just nods and helps me carry him to his car and me and Logan sit in the back and I stroke his hair as I see that he still the necklace he gave me in his hands.
I start to cry slightly and whisper to him ''Logan wake up''
So I'm sorry that it has taken me this too make another chapter for this, I have been busy looking for a job, writing and taking courses, and also trying to think of that conversation with Jo and Paris.
It would have been up sooner but took me a while to write, and this took me 7 pages, geez they are just getting longer. I don't know how many more chapters are going to be in this before it ends, but it won't be yet I know that much.
